Bäckerei-Café Parconido
Gold
Excellent Architecture
Retail Architecture
Details
The project draws from ‘European’ architectural elements, applying red brick in combination with stainless steel. The structure develops in layers ‘stuck one by one’ with columns that surge everywhere and rounded walls wrapping the open layout. Although the walls and columns compose different shapes, they all present a radius of 600 mm. Following this design rule that acts as a reference point throughout the construction, the project generates a sense of unity while still avoiding monotony.
The Jury‘s Statement
Trendy, contemporary and innovative: the Parconido bakery-café is a successful example of how to attract customers with a creative store design! Without losing its Korean aesthetic, the design is based on European elements. The use of red bricks in combination with stainless steel is appealingly modern. The clarity and stringency of the design are convincing. A remarkable project that innovatively and creatively combines different cultures and shows what potential still lies in the design of our retail spaces.
